[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Perimenopausal woman trying to greatly up my protein intake. I eat a mostly plant-based diet and getting enough protein to support my heavy weight lifting and fitness goals has been a struggle; there are only so many beans I can eat, haha. I do eat some occasional fish and "regular" dairy sometimes, which matters because right now Greek yogurt is a big protein source for me, but I want to expand from that. There are a number of plant-based protein shakes that are good and also help, but I need ideas for food as I can't just drink protein shakes all day. Any ideas? [/quote]

[u]No one in America "needs" more protein.[/u][b] But if you really want to get protein--go to McDonalds, KFC, Panda Express, Wendys, Chipotle, like every other American. [/quote]

Go do a couple of months of 60-80 mile running weeks without sufficient protein and let us know how that goes for you. Plenty of people in America do in fact "need" more protein. And, it is also a great way to intake food that has a higher thermic effect. It is also patently false that you will have problems with your kidneys, unless you already have some ultra narrow health issue.  [/quote]
